The Error-Prone Abbreviation List

This video presents the same text shown beside it, spoken and on screen. It adds nothing the text does not say.

State

An error-prone abbreviation list is a published, longer set of forms known to be misread, extending beyond any required list.

Show

The Institute for Safe Medication Practices publishes such a list and marks which entries also appear on required lists.

Watch for

Required lists are short and enforced. Error-prone lists are longer and advisory.
